Since the early days of oils, artists have made high demands regarding the durability of their work. In order to meet these demands for optimum durability, Old Holland still produces all its classic oil paints according to traditional formulas (the durability of which has been demonstrated over the course of time), supplemented by the latest contemporary insights.

The choice of pigments is a unique mix of the best traditional colors and the best pigments derived from the latest technological developments. Within the unique range of 168 colors, there is a wide range of opaque and transparent colors, each with the highest possible brilliance (intense) and clarity (clean) characteristics.
